Newcastle United midfielder Ryan Fraser has been linked with a move to the club this summer.
The Athletic report says he will be leaving soon. The player is said to have agreed with Southampton to leave Newcastle and the final details will be confirmed soon. He was on loan at Southampton last season and played a big part in their promotion.
Fraser has no future at Newcastle and needs to leave them for regular football. A move to Southampton would be good for him. He was going to get more opportunities with the Saints and he was going to get them to compete at a high level.
Southampton secured promotion to the Premier League this summer and need more quality and depth in their attack. Fraser should prove to be a useful acquisition. He has plenty of experience in the Premier League and will be determined to prove himself.
He didn't get many chances at Newcastle and the player will look to prove his worth at Southampton in the Premier League. He will be an inexpensive addition to the Saints and it remains to be seen if he can establish himself as a key starter for the team.
Ryan Fraser is not good enough for Newcastle
Meanwhile, Newcastle will be hoping to improve their squad during the summer transfer window and will look to get rid of their young players. Allowing Fraser to leave the club would free up the wage bill and allow them to bring in better players. The Magpies have a lot of work to do and need better players to compete for trophies next season. It would be good if they let players like Fraser leave the team.
He is contracted to Newcastle until 2025 and it remains to be seen whether the Magpies are prepared to let him leave for a bargain price.
The former Bournemouth winner is unlikely to get any better this year and is not good enough to start a club hoping for Champions League qualification. A move to a mid-level club suits him and Southampton will be the perfect place for him.
